Strayed Essay

wow. that was long.
for me, the beggining at least grabbed my attention but for a while it seemed to play out as make believe. i could relate the first half to a crude attempt at creating a commercialized "bold" romance novel. she tried a little to hard for the shock factor. (p 293 "i fucked. i sucked.")
but after all that there was a lot of introvert talk about looking at her decisions and how no one is right about grief, blah, blah. it was interesting for a while, i just think it went on way to long. i lost interest and got a headache. i got what she was saying at least but i think her POV was something like an angsty teenager to me.
